Default Need different lugs on my C5 DD' with ARP studs/spacer

I got my OEWheels C5 DD 10.5" rear wheels on, and I put on some ARP studs and 5/16" spacer to get some extra inner clearance. I have my fenders rolled so the outer clearance is good. At first the lug nuts seemed ok, but over time it has stretched out the key lug nut and has now damaged it. I want a new set of lug nuts for the rear that will cover these up, and fit snug without hitting the inside of the lug. I'm avoiding open end lug nuts if at all possible.. I don't know which ones to get and surely someone has had this issue somewhere..

You may want to measure the overall length of the lugs you have currently, and see if you can find a longer one. Are you just concerned about the locking lugs or all 10 on the rears? If not and want a set, I just saw these at summit, they're 1.75" long...I think the average length of the lugs used on our cars is around 1.4"
